Great VLogging Camera

I bought this camera 4 Years ago and It I believe it?s the best VLogging Camera around. It is very portable, inconspicuous, excellent video quality, excellent audio, it can be carried in your jean pockets and has a flip out Selfie Screen. I don?t know why Canon has stop manufacturing this awesome product. With more people VLogging and creating YouTube videos, I believe if this camera is still being made, many people will definitely buy it. It will be great if Canon will create an updated version with 4K. I will definitely line up to buy it!!

Favorite camera.

It is great for daily recording and traveling. The foot eliminates the need for a tripod and the screen, eliminates the need to connect it to a mobile phone, which is always a hassle with every devise I have tried. Sound is great, it has a mic input so can use this also as an audio recorder. The wide angle is perfect, it captures my family of 4 at small restaurant table. I'm crossing my fingers they do not discontinue this camera. I recently bought the Keymission 80 hoping to update my Mini X but it just felt short on all the things I listed above. Thanks Canon.

GIVES YOU EVERYTHING IT PROMISES

IT EXCELLENT IN QUALITY IMAGE AND USE. THE HDMI OUTPUT IS CLEAN AND UNCOMPRESSED. THE MENU STYLE IS THE SAME THAT OTHERS VIXIA CAMCORDERS, WHAT is very usefull if you, like me, have a bigger model of this line. in my case, a vixia hf g30. this is the best option for a second camera... "just in case" plus, im using in home videos, not feeling the lack of options of his "bigger sister" that is so big and expensive i never useit for family videos, but this have the best of two worlds. and is A BETTER CHOICE THAN A GO PRO!!

Firmware update needed

Well, after few months of using this camera i'm really waiting for any firmware update. Time-lapse mode - just a joke, Thousands MOV files 1 sec long, really? Why not just a single video or full resolution jpegs? Look at GoPro or other action cameras - you can't find anything like that. Editing in post - just a mess. Time-lapse mode freeze the camera after 30 min shoot. Very long startup and shutdown time. No way to turn off the screen or lock the touchscreen. Menu structure is very wired compare to dslrs (this is my first vixia, sorry. No usb port charging option. No option to get a clear screen, by default like a 80% covered by icons, numbers, indicators, frames, markers etc. Will be awesome to get something in the middle of the portrait and wide modes, even if without stabilization.

Awesome!

Have had it for less than a week. Read the manual back and forth..,again and again. I am slowly getting used to all the functions. Picture is EXCELLENT...sooo much better than the ZOOM Q3HD I had before. You can't even talk about them on the same day! The audio mix function is...FANTASTIC. There, I said it. The built in mice are excellent, too.

Great camcorder!

You can lock exposure and manually adjust white balance, BUT you do NOT have independent control over the ISO, Aperture, and Shutter speed. Those are all on automatic and you never know your exposure values. This makes no sense to me because you can do this on almost all other Vixia cameras. Can't find the ability to turning off the screen or hide elements on screen (like INFO button on DSLR cameras)

Good Product on the making

I think this little camera is good, but it needs a couple of improvements. Main issues I had was not being able to turn off the screen while I'm recording. The screen is touchscreen so you have to be very careful not to touch anything while you're recording The other problem I had was not being able to flip the screen and hide it while you record. There always a potential for scratching the surface of the screen while recording. Other than that I think I think it records pretty sharp and easy to carry.

Excellent documentation camera

Having used may of ultra portable video camera for on location documentation, by far this is easiest and most user friendly ultra portable video camera. The video/audio is excellent and easy to transport into your computer for post-processing. I just wish it has some light weather resistance and also the ability to turn off the LCD screen during recording. I highly recommended for on the go recording.

The latest member of the popular VIXIA mini series of pocket-sized camcorders, the new Canon VIXIA Mini x offers a number of important professional features to ensure that your productions contain the highest audio and video quality. Key innovations include a large, built-in stereo microphone for clear recording with minimal noise using enhanced Linear PCM 16-bit audio at a 48 kHz sample rate, together with full-format 1920 x 1080 HD videos in both MP4 and AVCHD (60i) formats recorded to SD media.

A variable-angle LCD with a built-in stand simplifies place-and-shoot recordings or self-shoot productions, with one-touch switching between Wide and Close-up modes. Electronic image stabilization helps reduce camera shake when shooting close-up during handheld shoots, while advanced built-in Wi-Fi functions now support live remote streaming to video monitors for surveillance and other applications, in addition to conventional HDMI output to large-screen TVs. A new, enhanced battery offers 2.5-times the record time of previous models for extended shooting time.

  • Audio Terminals: Built-in stereo microphone, external microphones can be connected to the camcorder for extra creative options or enhanced fidelity. A separate Mic Level control adjusts recording levels; you can also listen to recordings as they are being made using external headphones.

  • Higher capacity battery pack: Newly designed NB-12L battery provides 2.5-times the capacity as previous models, for extended record times & additional still images from a single charge. You can now accommodate continuous video recordings of long meetings or music performances up to 150 minutes long
  • Special Scene Mode: In The Car mode corrects exposure settings for passengers inside vehicles that tend to be backlit & as a result, normally are shot too brightly; instead, camcorder's settings are adjusted to be correct for dark areas so that areas inside the car will not be lost in the shadows
  • Automatic lens cover: Designed to be ultra-portable and ready to shoot in an instant, the VIXIA mini X camcorder's built-in lens shutter automatically opens when you turn it on, so that there is no need to remove and then keep track of a separate cap when the action begins.
